Science Center "Experiments" for a Snowy Day

Stuck inside without much to do?

Snowproblem!

Burlington Science Center has two great science-packed suggestions to make the most of your snow day.

SNOW SCIENCE FUN #1: LIVE CHICK HATCHING!

The chicks were supposed to hatch on Tuesday and Wednesday in the first and fourth grade classrooms at the Francis Wyman and Pine Glen schools. Due to the storm, we decided to set up a live webcam at the Science Center in one of the incubators. Watch them from the comfort of your home by tuning in to our live chick incubator feed on the Burlington Science Center blog!

**Note to parents: Sometimes, during the chick hatching process, unforeseen circumstances can occur.

The Science Center may choose to stop the live feed at any time. Thanks for your understanding.

SNOW SCIENCE FUN #2: HOW MUCH WATER IN A FOOT OF SNOW?

How many inches of water does it take to make a foot of snow? The answer might surprise you!
